Yes, you're hearing me right.

Hey world.

Can't believe I've been here in Warisan for about 2 months now. Time really flies and I have a week left until 22nd of August.

So far I've been taking care of a series of entrepreneurship event call Global Insights under Vani's and Vivian's guidance. This event is in conjunction with the upcoming Global Entrepreneurship Week on the 16th of August.


A lot of media came and maybe if you watch NTV7 recently my boss and the deputy minister of higher education got a long video about Global Entrepreneurship Week, newspaper and such. Click here to watch the video!

Met a lot of people and gained a lot of knowledge. From scanning name cards the first 3 days to making calls to the embassies to look for speaker for the event i'm 'in charge' of. It's really cool in a sense that working here, although I'm just a trainee, i got to work with the CEO and the secretariat staff very closely, closer to some of the permanent employees here. My voice are heard when I suggest something, it will be accepted and if it's rejected they will tell me the reason without ignoring my existance.


Me. Boss (Dash). Vivian

Vivian is my mentor, she is smaller than me!! She is from China and she worked her way up and man i must say she is a power lady! Now that I've been assisting her for some time I feel bad to leave her at the busiest period. And the board expressed eagerly they wanted to extend me, and i'm taking it into consideration.

Reason being i don't like to do my work halfway cuz i'm in it already, and i really like working here. So i'm going to think deeply about it, and most likely - i'm extending.

It's A Nice Morning at Work

OMG.

OMG.

OMFG!!!!!

This bag is so awesome!!




Wish i have time to go check it out. This season's bag is totally awesome from Chanel.

*********************************************

It's been 2 weeks I'm in Warisan Global, so far since first day i've been pretty much occupied with loads of work. My dad says it's good at least they kept me busy. Then i realized i'm not actually in a event company, because we've been working much on Global Entrepreneurship Week. This company is a project management company, and it's getting busier each day as we're looking for partners and such. CEO is going everywhere with meetings and his personal assistant is just as stressful and busy.

Working environment.
Well, i would say everyday is a happy day for everybody. Although there's only 2 chinese in the office including myself but everyone is very nice and "internationalized". Is there even such word? My boss are very cool people, and foodies too!

This time commuting to work is MUCH less stressful and the celaka-feeling is less also. I pretty much feel going to work is quite fast, thankful that i don't have to walk to Bukit Bintang area because now they've demolished the shortcut towards MRT station. And i wear slippers and jeans to work. Now i just have to get off at Masjid Jamek, cross the road and voila! i'm at workplace already!

The best thing about this place is...

There's 5 clinics at the office block. That freakin' cool cuz i'm always on a verge of getting sick.

I was sick the first week at work, talk about giving my colleages a fright cuz they thought I'm with H1N1, i myself thought i have it because it was so sudden and the symtoms are so alike. The doctor advised me to go back to Kuantan, stay at home and read some books - wtf. I went to the hospital and it turned out that H1N1 has yet to attack me because apparently i need to be exposed to a H1N1 patient for at least 4 hours with 1 meter distance.

SO people!! if you're sick don't freak out like i do.

I wonder how's everybody doing, so if you're reading this post please drop a msg at the chatbox and keep me updated!

Actually i've been freakin' out about starting school next term already, how about you?

Hard To Say Goodbye

We were walking aimlessly at the KLIA's check-in lobby looking for a girl in white shirt and ribbon on the neck, couldn't find her. He made a call, she's having dinner at Mc Donald's with her family. I was thinking if I have more time I'll go to KLCC after work to get her a scarf or hand glove for her trip to this icy country, sadly by the time I finished work its just the time to leave to the airport before it's too late.

What a last minute plan but so heartfilling. I've known her for only 2 years plus, but I felt like I've known her for more than 20 years. We don't look the same but people seem to confuse our name much too often. It is funny how both of us can read our minds sometimes. She is much stronger than I am but she don't even dare to watch the movie that might make her cry. Although she's left college but often she made time for me just to check if I'm doing fine. Thank you.

Now that you've got an injured hands, I hope you still can enjoy yr time in Finland and get well soon.

***************************************************************************

I felt bad leaving work today but I got my work done before i leave. Been busy and staying back in the office. I'm learning a lot of stuff and colleage are very nice people and helped me a lot. The best thing is facebook and MSN is allowed.

Adiós.

Love you guys!

Tribute to the Late Michael Jackson (1958 - 2009)

Michael Jackson has brought many joy in music with his soulful voice. I 'm thinking the whole world must be mourning for the lost but i think he is in a better place right now. So far (26/06/2009 3.12pm) no report has clarify what's the cause for his death. We're guessing drugs.

He is younger than many of our dad but i guess he call it quits first.


Rest in Peace, King of Pop.

Love You.


The next thing you know record company will come up with a collection of his album.

Death sells.

Just like any artist, you only get famous after you're dead.

On my way back home..


I hardly slept in the coach on my way back to Kuantan.
I was recapping what happened for the past 3 months. I still can remember first day when the term starts.

The route is quite obvious to me.

The city and Kuantan has total opposite.

But i love KL's shopping mall though.

I've been telling my friends how badly i want to go back but there's no time that allows me to do so. It's been so stressful, i felt lonely sometimes, overloading with homework and assignments.. working with people that hardly want the marks just as bad as you. It sucks.

The last day of exam was Eugene's birthday but i didn't make it by the time Wayne wanted to come and fetch me because i thought no one is coming to fetch me already. When i was just about to go to bed Shawn called me up and asked me to accompany him for dinner. When i reached SS15 i got a text from Wayne, i was thinking "Aiya..." I wanted to go but couldn't ditch my friend alone at the moment. But, i hope he have a wonderful birthday and i sure know he had a blast.

Happy 20th Birthday Eugene!

Anyways i'm very excited to go back home and enjoy durian dinner :)

Me Day

I had some Me-time last 2 months at Bukit Bintang to relax, rewind and stay sane.

Had my breakfast with Samson at the back of Starhill Gallery at the chinese coffeeshop. Ordered an egg tart and siew pao, yummies.



And then when Samson went over to work i walked around Pavilion and then decided to go Michelangelo's to pay a visit and to have an early lunch.



Ordered a ceasar salad with grilled chicken, i would say presentation wise and food quality has dropped tremendously since the last time i dined in. Nevertheless, the chefs are still kicking asses.


I was so tempted to buy stuff but i didn't, saving for bigger things :).


I was walking around for such a long hour my legs were sore. So i headed to The Loaf and sat there eating for about an hour with a book in hand.


I'm extremly tired.



Purchase of the day!


Can't believe i finally found a French exercise book, and it's the only one there. How sad.
I ended up going out with another friend who so conveniently picked me up and went for dinner again. Phew..

Blue Cow Cafe Mont Kiara

Have you seen a platter so full of meat just thinking about it makes you hungry???


We'll last 2 months or so.. or 3 months, well i don't remember.. we had a taste of this wonderful cozy restaurant located at Plaza Mont Kiara. Quite tricky to find that place but it's like a small city up there so even if you're lost you're somewhere close to that place.



The setting of the restaurant is very friendly, cozy and not intimidating at all. The blue and white stripes scattered across the small space makes it unique. At the front of the restaurant there are a vast variety of meat item (non-halal) displaying stirring your appetite. Ranging from strips of bacon to a whole pork loin and homemade sausages.



Overlooking the restaurant is Kenny Heights, with the construction going on and all. Well i would say that somehow spoilt the view, if it's a nice lake down there i bet the food might cost a little more.


The owners are Australians, bringing their very homemade recipes to Malaysia.



Oh i must tell you the food is delicious. Here's the proof.



The dessert we ordered was made so simply but so hearty. It's a dates muffin drizzle in caramel sauce with vanilla ice cream.


Yum Yum, if you have the time go check this place out! worth every penny!
